Oyster Club in Mystic. Farm to table, it has been open about a year, the chef was the chef at River Tavern for 7 years, and the owner started his career with the Max Rest. Group. They will not be dissapointed!

Milagro's in Stonington. TIny little place, great fresh food.... Conchita Pibil, Chicken Mole, chips and guacamole, if they have a taco special, get it!

AMAZING drinks! House infused tequilas, all great! I prefer their "fresh" margaritas, put any margarita there is good. Also have a huge collection(60+) of top shelf sipping tequilas, if the owner, Martin is there he can give you quite the lesson!

It is small though, 7 or so tables and a 8 seat bar, so get there early or be prepared to wait, if it is nice out they have a small outdoor seating area, but I like the vibe inside.

Captain Scott's in New London! It is not sit-down, but if you want delicious whole lobster dinner they do it great. Also hearing good things about Ford's Lobster in Noank, smaller local spot...avoid the tourist trap that is Abbot's.

I just read an article in the Day about a New London food truck (Munchie's) that is very closely associated with the old Diana's http://www.theday.com/article/2011062...I have not eaten there, but have heard wonderful things

I would suggest the Black Sheep Pub in East Lyme. As long as you avoid the height of the drinking hours (Thurs, Fri, Sat after 9), you should be able to find a cozy corner to tuck yourself into. The food is a little pricier, but nicer than your typical pub food. Quite impressive looking too, lots of wood, leather, and a fireplace or two.

If you mean this Sunday 8/15 in Mystic be prepared for crowds. The art festival is this weekend and can wreak havoc as far as having dinner in Mystic. Take the extra 10 minutes down the road to check out Stonington. There are quite a few options for dinner and drinks that can make for a great Sunday :)

We stopped in last weekend and can highly recommend the white clam sauce ($5.95), we picked up a lb of fresh pasta ($3.50) to go with it, it was a great meal for the two of us. For just shy of $10, with lots of pasta leftover we were very happy.

Water St Cafe ~ Full oyster bar, tons of sefood entrees (not any of the fried variety and no lobster dinner) Plenty of non seafood entrees. Eclectic...but alot of dishes have a bit of an asian flair. It's right in Stonington Boro, about 15 min from the casinos, a picturesque little village...

It WAS South by Southwest!! I am soo upset it's closed :( We just had takeout one night 4 yrs ago and still talk about it. They were so packed and it was our last night... I hate it when the good ones don't make it!

Maybe, that is the spot but this rstaurant wasn't Thai, It was just a mix of everything lots of veg options/seafood/ kind of a mex vibe if I remember correctly and they served breakfast as well...I'm guessing it's not there anymore

I have wondering for a while...about three years ago we were in camden and found a great restaurant, it was on the main street, had a covered patio on the side of the building(where a band was playing) and was pretty small on the inside. We actually just got take out because we were starving and they were jammed! The food was fabulous...does anyone know the name or if it is still there?? We will be in Maine in a few weeks, and will make the drive to Camden if it is still there...

Cafe NV in Waterford. Great Souvlaki and Shrimp Saganaki (sp?). To die for Lemon Chicken and rice soup... great pastries! New London adn Norwich both have Greek festivals the same week in Oct I believe

My vote goes to Hot Rods in New London. They are freshly cut, non-frozen, non-breaded wings. The buffalo are excellent, they come in 10-15 other flavors. They are all good especially the spicy teriyaki, jerk, and dry garlic and pepper. It has a great atmosphere, family friendly sports bar would be the best way to describe it.
